37 millions Americans in this country lives in poverty. In rural areas some people are without water & gas. Some the homes they live has holes in the ceilings, roofs, and floors.
I’m from Mississippi and was raised with all three of those young men they right shit was hard in Mississippi no opportunities at all going to college or the military was our way out.
I was born and raised in Greenville Mississippi and I love Mississippi and my people in Mississippi stay strong keep the faith in the most high and he will see you through
Lord have mercy. I've never seen someone live like this and it breaks my heart. As Americans, where professional athletes make millions per year, where we idolize Beyoncé and jay z who are worth billions, where we waste so much money on the unnecessary things in life, it is a disgrace and shame to our country to allow anyone to live in such poor and dilapidated conditions. May God help these individuals, and help us all to be more loving and giving to those in need
mariah palmer Right. Someone please call Oprah to get right on this. She had time to go to Africa with her entourage and do a show on a sweet little girl that she sponsored. She can't be bothered go to Mississippi and do a damn thing... and to the fucker that attacked Haley Barbour for doing nothing consider the truth of this. Mississippi was solid Democrat until roughly 20 years ago. Many blacks AND whites were poor then and they're poor now. I'm guessing this lady lived in this shack while the first "black president," Bill Clinton was in office. What do you know? We have our second but first real black president in office and she's still in poverty. Fucking left wing hypocrite scums.
That's my hometown Webb, MS. My mom was the first ever African American Mayor and unfortunately she only served one term so she didn't get a chance to help everyone. But she did help 4 families to build new homes. Also the Dollar General on the highway 49, she brought it in. This video brings back some sad memories
Love this vid, it just beings tears to my eyes , I am from Mississippi, and still have all my family there, Gulfport, Mississippi, matter of fact and thats how we do Look out for everyone, because like he said " he knows how this life is like. God bless all those young men, may they have a very blessed life!
That hurt my heart n soul to see that old lady washing clothes on that washboard god is goin to bless her with everything she needs!!!! She's humble n a strong black woman God has her back all the way true blessing shall fall upon this woman
I’m from Buffalo NY, I’m 50 years old and my great grandmother came from Mississippi. When I was like 5 to like 12 my GMA had us washing clothes in the bathtub with one of those boards 😂😂 she was old school so she didn’t spend cash for no reason. Only time we used a dryer was in the dead winter because we had no place to hang the clothes to dry. It built character in me. I’m so strong and can adapt to anything now.
I'm from Tutwiler and Clarksdale Ms born and raised. I now live in Corinth Ms. I know what its like to be poor. I still even at the age of 39 do not own anything of great value...nor do I aim to. I'm thankful for my heritage. My faith has grown as result of the lack of material wealth. I sympathize with anyone who is in need. A friend in need is a friend indeed. Look beside you...your needed.
Africans we are blessed with land, food and still working hard for the future.News channels exaggerate things about Africa when they go deep in villages.
Thank you, Antoinette, for bringing these young men together, and to all these young men who opened their wonderful hearts and minds to us strangers out here. I missed the conference due to a health issue, but had something to do with making it happen. This video is the kind of thing we hoped for as we thought about what might come out of it. We will meet again when we march from the Delta to the Rust Belt next summer, continuing to build the unsettling force!
I was born and raised in a Delta town by the name of Morgan City, MS. This a very accurate account of how people live in this area of the United States. All places are not as extreme, however, there is census data that can substantiate the conditions portrayed by this organization.
The people that have it aka Congress, have no interest in even investing one fkn dollar for these people. They already have it all, but letting someone else succeed, or share this amazing wealth our country has produced since 1945 is just a joke to them.
prayers to my brothas and sistas in Mississippi struggling financially and struggling with all the mortgage and no bills I want my brothas and sistas to overcome the difficult oppression down there.
You see UA-camRS!!!...our young Israel men have a heart for their people!👏👏👏👏👏👏.....God is getting ready to move through our youth in these last days!...
I do not know how I came about these videos on UA-cam as I never seen vlogs like this I Thank you for this. I am so Blessed and Grateful even though I complain God is good! I really want to help.
Praying for all my heart hurts to see this Some people have no idea ,Some people never Went without food or don't know how they're going to pay their bills But I have a word of advice Be careful what you say about someone else Because one day you are on top of the world-and the next day-the world could-be on top of you !!!!!
It's breaks my heart to see how our people lives like this in Mississippi. I wish they can come to live in South Africa it's much better here. God have MERCY on them. Hoping that their lives are going to change one day
Makes me sad as an American that people have to live this way surrounded by so much wealth. Makes me happy to see these young men coming to the aid of the needy and poor. Makes me grateful for how God has blessed me.
I am from Greenville, yep people are still living like this. I left in '96 for the Marines. They are strong and so loving. Black leaders where are you?
I live in the Mississippi delta and I have seen people live in some bad houses but never have I seen hungry people.This video chose a really bad situation so many people will think everything is like this.
@kaycee67 i dont think she is trying to exploit them, just not an expert ethnographer. she should be a participant observer, using life histories, informal interviews, and collective conversation. which she does, it just comes of very awkward. you really need to just live down there for like a year, get integrated in the community, and only turn on your camera when the people are comfortable. poor people would like to know when you're coming too so they can take a shower and do their hair!
Thank you for helping ! 💋 💋 people need help sometimes and these "young men ,our future " needs to see more things like this in the World 🌎 !!! God bless you
The people that post here suggesting that NOT all of the Mississippi Delta is like this should be ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES! The truth is NONE, NONE, NONE of the Mississippi Delta should be like This! No one in the Delta should be allowed to live like this. If Mississippi had any functional zoning laws houses like this would be condemned as unfit for human habitation but republican states will let you own and lease a hell hole and call it a home. This is what the world looks like when there is the ZERO Regulation environment that republicans favor. People living in Hell Hole Homes using wash boards and barely surviving in conditions that mirror the worse slums of third world nations in 2017! This is a shame and an abomination that should not exist anywhere IN OUT OUTSIDE THE MISSISSIPPI DELTA! So long as one person in Mississippi lives like this the whole State, County and Local Government System of Mississippi is nothing more than a suburb of HELL Itself led by devils of varying levels of evil! This level of suffering being tolerated in 2017 makes me violently ill.
I have had some experience washing my clothes by hand. I didn't think that it was real hard work but it IS very time consuming and washing machines do a lot to free up the mind and body for things that are more important. I hope that she gets her washing machine.
My grandmother from MS used to wash all her clothes by hand too in the same kind of pail. She did it mostly by choice because it was something she was used to and that's how she grew up washing clothes. She eventually got a washing machine 4 years before she died only because she couldn't move around very well anymore, but nothing would stop her from hanging her clothes out to dry on a line- or better yet, have me or my sister go out there and do it for her. She was very hardworking and pushed us to be hardworking too. :)
BeWiTcHeD My mum prefers to cook on a fire pit in the yard despite the new kitchen my siblings and foster siblings and I bought her some years back (Even had a grill and exhaust hod put in hoping she'd use it.). As you say, it's what she knows.
Gachitadamunga i said to my brother when visiting him in Atlanta if he would take me to Mississippi as we in England have heard a lot about this psrt of America. My brother said, even he wouldn't go there. End of story.
Your videos are wonderful and very informative. However, sometimes it's hard to hear what you're saying to your guests when you are turned away from the camera. Thank you for all of this knowledge and understanding of what our people are suffering and going through that this country is trying to hide. Keep up the excellent work you are doing. Peace be with you.
That's that ole skool family attitude. If I have and he doesn't... I help him. That's how it use to be before all the Elders from the 20s and 30s passed on.
This isn't just in Mississippi. I've lived in California, Oregon, Washington, and Florida, and quite a few places in between. I just talked to a woman who is living in a single wide trailer with no electricity. Even though her place is homesteaded so she doesn't have to pay property taxes, the county just passed a bond to support the sheriff's department which if she doesn't pay by next March, she's out on the street. The government would rather pay ten times as much to feed and house this person, than just let her stay in her own home. The government would also rather let the taxpayer bail out banks that have effectively gambled our money away. The banks would rather let foreclosed houses sit idle and rot away than just auction them off. These guys have the right idea in that they're going to just get her what she needs themselves rather than relying on inept and completely corrupt Federal, State, and local governments.
where is this located??? what is it close to?? im in JACKSON,MISSISSIPPI and its like manhattan or los angels compared to this...I REPEAT IM IN MISSISSIPPI AND I HAVE NEVER SEEN STUFF LIKE THIS BEFORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The point is to see how people are living in bad conditions, in this rich country and nobody lends a hand to help, some of the comments below need a comprehensive classes,cause boy it just went right through some of y'all head I mean wow pay attention, wake up!!! Better yet even come Lord Jesus it's got to end😪😪
What's funny tho I kept a job when I stayed in Mississippi but I moved to Memphis 6 months ago still no job I see why Memphis crimes so high they don't give convicted felons a second chance so they only kill, an Robb, they give government officials a second chance but not a regular guy like me, so guess what I'm not gonna go hungry or go back to prison God got me soon or later
I simply meant these young men have skills to offer. NOTHING negative against my peeps! BUT for you , you're just ignorant and apparently angry. Learn how to read and comprehend before commenting. @donnajeanheim-mcwhite4210
You should try and find him on census records. Ive heard my 4great grand was cherokee indian and i found them on the census. Go from negro, to mullato, then BACK to negro. The crazy part tho, is I found my 4great aunt and uncle living in Indian Territory in Cherokee Nation on the 1900 census 7 years before oklahoma became a state. So. Id say its worth looking into.
@@FuegoNegro463 man its crazy. I used to heat that all the time "we got indian in our family" qnd used to just kinda be like yeahhhhh ok. But when i seen the census and how it was manipulated, THEN seen my 4greats address i was like damn. There is DEFINANTLY more to it. I interviewed my grandma (by phone) and recorded it asking her about it. (It would be her great grandma) she said she never met them but her grandad always said his mom was fullblood. I just know not to dismiss black folks who say it now. I mean even the mixtures are inevitible when you think about it, black and natives were in proximity for centuries, plus some of the natives were indeed "black". Just how many we may never know, but i AUTOMATICALLY think its more than greater society leads us to believe.
Very noble young men, but you can't help people who don't want to help themselves, unless you're just going to give away money! People without upward mobility, a way to get on there feet in order to gain a skill or trade, in order to get a job. Without that, they're going to continue to need help, continue to do the same thing that does not benefit their socioeconomic plight.
Sooo did these young men actually help her? I know it's n old video but I want to know if they helped her. Clearly the lady who took them to see all this has been working her whole life to help ppl.
Im white Englishman,been through some of rural MS,a fair bit of it is like this but not all.Youd get a pretty good reception,i know i did.Some older black people bit fearful of whites but i can see why.Plenty poor white folk down there as well some nice a few not .Is very segregated.Youd be safe enough,fear of police is widespread and you should try to avoid them too.The one thing they do like is you spending money there cos even the stores are run down and half empty.Go and enjoy it
SIR JAY D ASK XX PRESIDENT OBUMER HE SHOULD KNOW. ASK HIM HE WILL DEFINITELY TELL Y'ALL SUCKERS. THE HELP WENT TO THE WETS. CROSSING THE BORDER. YEAH THE MEXICANS. CALIFORNIA THAT'S THE PROOF !! I'M A THIRD GENERATION AMERICAN HISPANIC. THANK GOD FOR THA!!!
I'm proud to be black, but I'm more blessed to have not experienced this kind of struggle, not ever! Let me not complain cause these people are truly struggling.
there is always poor people left behind,two kind of people the wel to do,and the very poor,if you feel that your heart want allow you to help some one that's poor, then just move on and let some one else,how can I say to a poor person,wel you should of been rich and save your money--what a cold hearted thing to say to a older person.
These millionaires need to look around and open their eyes hearts and bank accounts to see where they can help and spend their moneys for tax write-off.
It's so sad but it's horrible their are people in Jackson miss living just like this it is how people to work together I know people who asked for help to re help with their house know one helped it's sad it's around the country thank God for these young people
What they're doing is great, we have to help one another. Don't rely on others and don't take hand outs from them either. They call my people lazy lol, they're the ones who needed slave's. Stay strong brothers and sisters and more importantly stay focused! Peace and love
^ I have traveled throughout the US and sadly Mississippi looks like that in many places especially when you drive south out of Memphis on the Interstate. It shocked me at how poor that state is.
People choose to live like this. I'm originally from the Mississippi delta lived there for 20 years. I've seen this first hand its called improperly managing money. The people (white and black) would rather draw a government check than to do some work poor choices in life.
I hope the youth that see this especialy the inner city youths and young black men EVERYWHERE that have a chance to go to school and become somthing and start a buisness will instead of going straight for drugs,guns ect or waist there chances and mess there life up and live like this or worse.
I'm from the Mississippi Delta. This breaks my heart. God help her. Mississippi people are good people.
No they not, especially them white people
@メ ヤタ I'm kidding
@メ ヤタ I love you
Mississippians keep voting against their own best interests & it breaks my heart.
I’m from Mississippi and was raised with all three of those young men they right shit was hard in Mississippi no opportunities at all going to college or the military was our way out.
Keep in mind that some of these houses are well over 100 years old and have been passed down through generations.
Only in america dam shame 😞😞😞
I was born and raised in Greenville Mississippi and I love Mississippi and my people in Mississippi stay strong keep the faith in the most high and he will see you through

+mariah palmer I'm right there with ya, these are some good people too, really friendly and welcoming
These people live in rural areas. They need to find a way to other areas (cities).
No, why? Why can't the area they are in now be improved? Nothing wrong with the country - but if they want to, then by all means
there is no industry in the country. That is the problem

This is painful to watch and to know that people are living in these dire conditions, right here in America.
Will someone finger out away to help we can send people to the moon surely we can do this
Qey Visuals I used to live in Greenville .
You don't even want to think this is real in the USA maybe some other country heartbreaking prayer for these people
Our youths now a days(2018) need to go these places and see how good they have it and change their mindsets and their ways like these young men
The worst part of it is there is s hepatitis c outbbreak in black communities in Mississippi.

Im white Englishman,been through some of rural MS,a fair bit of it is like this but not all.Youd get a pretty good reception,i know i did.Some older black people bit fearful of whites but i can see why.Plenty poor white folk down there as well some nice a few not .Is very segregated.Youd be safe enough,fear of police is widespread and you should try to avoid them too.The one thing they do like is you spending money there cos even the stores are run down and half empty.Go and enjoy it
Any updates 😓
thanks for the response
Can someone tell us what has been done for this lady (and her family) since this recording. I would love to help, but I need to see updates. Shalom!

Troll(s) responding. Not real people.
I'm proud to be black, but I'm more blessed to have not experienced this kind of struggle, not ever! Let me not complain cause these people are truly struggling.
This is horrible!!!Prayers please for this woman.
there is always poor people left behind,two kind of people the wel to do,and the very poor,if you feel that your heart want allow you to help some one that's poor, then just move on and let some one else,how can I say to a poor person,wel you should of been rich and save your money--what a cold hearted thing to say to a older person.
These millionaires need to look around and open their eyes hearts and bank accounts to see where they can help and spend their moneys for tax write-off.
How are they now in 2019? Did you keep in touch and try to do a follow up?
Seven years later do you have any updates???

Hello. Is most of the state of Mississippi like this?
Lawd mercy, bless her heart doe.
God bless thank you for sharing what can we do to help???
Have there been any progress to this story? What kind of work does the lady do?
How can I sign up and help? I live here in Florida, but I would still like to give my support if I can.
Great video!
What they're doing is great, we have to help one another. Don't rely on others and don't take hand outs from them either. They call my people lazy lol, they're the ones who needed slave's. Stay strong brothers and sisters and more importantly stay focused! Peace and love
Damn I from New Orleans and damn we next door to Mississippi and that look like a third world country

^ I have traveled throughout the US and sadly Mississippi looks like that in many places especially when you drive south out of Memphis on the Interstate. It shocked me at how poor that state is.
People choose to live like this. I'm originally from the Mississippi delta lived there for 20 years. I've seen this first hand its called improperly managing money. The people (white and black) would rather draw a government check than to do some work poor choices in life.
AAAMEN!!! Jesus is much needed for this cause.
All of MS ain’t like this but people do need help.
Just wondering where and what are these awesome young men doing now in 2019
Rent??? How could anyone “rent” that to somebody?
I’m from Belzoni MS Humphreys County it doesn’t look like that at all those people are from the back part of the Delta it’s really poor.
Where are they now?
how much is rent out there and property tax? id love to get me a peice of land out there.
@YOURSTORY,How do i contact the lady who is over this org,please help me contact her.
Bro in the red was feeling it so bad he had to walk off when she started washing
This is why we need to stop sending financial aid overseas. We need to help our own people here in the States
Lord knows, I remember those wash tubs and wash boards. Even up until fall weather.
I am assuming you live there no longer?
Thank GOD for GOOD Black people
I'm from Jackson MS and I didnt know people where living like in Mississippi. Not still using wash boards and riding on dirt roads.
Go to Claiborne county just outside of port Gibson and you'll see a bunch of dirt roads and bad poverty
I hope the youth that see this especialy the inner city youths and young black men EVERYWHERE that have a chance to go to school and become somthing and start a buisness will instead of going straight for drugs,guns ect or waist there chances and mess there life up and live like this or worse.
